Playing the game of life and working hard to level up.

@AlexMBertini Is this actually possible or the platform would recognize and shadow ban?

@zackpaid Cook

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

I used a Claude Pro subscription and hit the usage limit after just 30 minutes on a small coding project. Is that normal?

When I review copy, I can only get through 3 ads with 2 iterations before I reach the limit.

Does the Max plan truly offer a meaningful difference?

What Stefan is building is unique...

[Stefan Georgi @StefanGeorgi]

Seeking an Arrangement with a Stacked Senior Engineer (It’ll Be Our Secret)

I don’t usually do this, but startups have needs too.

Single, 6-Month-Old AI Startup is looking for an underappreciated Senior Engineer.

You’re someone who is very good at agent loops, observability for non-deterministic systems, cost-aware multi-model routing, and token economics at scale…

We’re a team building marketing intelligence and automation for DTC Brands - with over 65 businesses using the platform daily to drive over $100 million in monthly ad spend.

We’re a Good Match If:

You sometimes find yourself fantasizing about what life would be like in one of those AI startups that ships new features daily…

Instead of feeling like you’re constantly getting cucked by some bloated organization that takes weeks - or even months - to push your work to prod…

And you crave the scintillating sensation that comes from real-life connection with high value users…folks who will give you direct feedback based on their unique needs.

And We Get It: You’re Polycurious, But You’re Not Dumb

You want to taste that forbidden fruit…but you’re not a fool. You know that diving into early-stage startups is risky. Your work may not appreciate you…it may even give you the cold shoulder after a long, hard day...

But you tell yourself “hey, that’s just how it goes. Predictable is safe”...

Deep, deep down though...in your heart of hears, you know it’s a lie.

Can You Relate to Any Of This?

If so…

There's a third way...

Where you come have a steamy-hot affair with the team at StefanBrain.

We want you. We need you. We already appreciate you.

We’ll also pay you quite well (without making you feel dirty, we swear).

And we definitely won’t complain if you’re too fast. In fact, that’s pretty much a requirement.

So if that’s you…

Slide into our founder’s DMs…

Hell, plunge into them for all we care…

Because right now, we’re in the middle of a big push that’s going to multiply our load significantly…

And we're looking for someone who can meet our needs TONIGHT.

-Stefan and the StefanBrain Team

P.S. You don’t need to spend another night lying awake in bed, too hot and bothered to sleep, as you think of the insane valuations those AI startups are landing…not when you can come satisfy your curiosity with StefanBrain.

P.P.S. Rewrite of a post from Saturday, but without an image, to see if it gets more reach.

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

@DeRonin_ It seem @opencode does most of it or am I wrong?

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

Very true.

A good reminder for whoever holds the power to punish

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

@StefanGeorgi Hey @StefanGeorgi I cannot DM, but I would love to chat about this.

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

@zigmoo @thdxr I felt the same way.

I switched back to 4.5 as my default Opus.

I still have mixed feelings about GPT 5.5.

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

Documents, specs, decks, proposals, code

All of it longer.
All of it plausible.

All of it needing someone who actually knows the product

The bottleneck isn't output anymore

It's context, it's trust

(2/2)

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

Someone sends you a 40-page spec at 4pm

"Quick review?"

They wrote it in half an hour with AI

You'll spend three hours reading it

Because they don't have the context. You do.

This is the new shape of expert work

Not creating. Reviewing.

@CTtheDisrupter If you are an affiliate, and you don’t have all the data (email, phone, name) a the purchase event has, what would you do?

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

@kozloai @CTtheDisrupter I wanna know how to repro this.

I will test what you said!

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

@RyanWaranauskas @ecomfrr I’ve experienced the same thing. Dynamic primary text, dynamic headlines, and site links perform well.

The rest demands sharper judgment. That’s only natural.

These tools don’t know the audience, the middle of the funnel, or the subtle context that drives real decisions.

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

@CTtheDisrupter @scalesurfer_ It depends on the product and funnel, no?

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

@StefanGeorgi HIPAA compliance. SOC 2 certification. The whole infrastructure. Come on. 🤦🏼‍♂️

The judge misses the mark, badly, and on multiple levels.

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

@StefanGeorgi I heard an executive boast, “I can build an ambient scribe in an afternoon.”

Sure, you can hack together a prototype in a few hours. But a real system?

One with a solid database. A resilient front end that doesn’t collapse the moment it strays from the happy path.

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

@indiewhacker Can you share John?

[Sapo @EcomSapo]

I've put together a list of 10 of the BEST weight loss VSLs scaling on Meta right now 👀

Not random stuff.

Actual offers spending real money.

Inside:

→ VSLs running for weeks/months
→ Funnels doing serious volume
→ Angles that are clearly working

@niko87dot That's crazy.

Paid the pro plan for what?

[Aécio Levy @aeciolevy]

Claude is currently unusable. Unfortunately.

I just reviewed some text, and reached the limit. Imagine if I were coding.
